Symetrix 80-0078 ARC-K1e White
Product Overview
The Symetrix 80-0078 ARC-K1e is a single-knob ARC wall panel providing a single rotary encoder for volume or parameter control of a Symetrix DSP system. The simplest device in the ARC wall panel family, the ARC-K1e is designed for installations where a single, dedicated physical knob for volume adjustment is all that is required — such as a zone volume control in a secondary room, a hallway, or a waiting area. It installs in a single-gang Decora back box, connects via RS-485, and is programmed in Symetrix Composer. Available in white finish.
Product Description
The ARC-K1e White presents a single large rotary encoder on a clean white Decora faceplate. Turning the encoder adjusts the assigned DSP parameter — typically zone volume — in Composer-defined steps. There are no pushbuttons on this panel, making it the most focused and lowest-cost option in the ARC lineup for pure volume control applications. RS-485 bus connection supports up to 16 ARC devices per run. Power is provided via the DSP ARC port or ARC-PSe (80-0093). For installations requiring buttons in addition to the encoder, the ARC-2e (80-0056 White, 80-0155 Black) is the appropriate upgrade.
Key Features
- Single Rotary Encoder — One dedicated rotary knob for continuous volume or DSP parameter adjustment, with no buttons to distract or confuse end users.
- RS-485 DSP Connection — Connects to Symetrix Prism, EDGE, or Radius NX, supporting up to 16 ARC devices per bus.
- Decora Single-Gang Form Factor — Standard single-gang Decora back box installation.
- Symetrix Composer Programmable — Encoder function and parameter assignment configured in Composer.
- Lowest-Complexity ARC Panel — Ideal for secondary zone volume control where simplicity is a priority and end-user confusion must be minimized.
- White Finish — Coordinates with white Decora hardware in light-finish commercial installations.
Typical Applications
- Secondary zone volume control knob
- Waiting room or reception area volume control
- Hallway or breakout room single-knob audio control
- Commercial space simple volume wall control

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does the ARC-K1e have any buttons?
A: No. The ARC-K1e has only a single rotary encoder with no pushbuttons. For a panel with encoder plus buttons, see the ARC-2e (80-0056 White, 80-0155 Black).
Q: Which DSPs are compatible with the ARC-K1e?
A: Compatible with Symetrix Prism, EDGE, and Radius NX via RS-485.
Q: Can the encoder be assigned to parameters other than volume?
A: Yes. The encoder can be assigned to any supported DSP parameter in Symetrix Composer.
Q: Does it require the ARC-PSe?
A: Power is via the DSP ARC port or ARC-PSe (80-0093) when needed.
